Aróund 1906 Remington produced the transformation to the floating firing flag onboth guns. It was a running transformation so there is no precise serial quantity.The best way to tell the two design's aside is definitely by the serial figures.
The model1894 serial number's begin with a (1) and the design 1900 serial quantity's startwith á (3). All have 6 quantity's in the serial quantity. So if the serial numberstart's with a (3) it is certainly a model 1900.
Furthermore on the 1894 specifically onlater weapon's sometimes there is definitely a 'P' ahead of the serial amount, The 'P'signifies the 1894. On the 1900 sometimes there is usually a 'Queen' ahead of theserial quantity, the 'Queen' implies the model 1900.Ah significantly as the receiver parts proceed about the only difference is fit and finishbetween thé 1894 and the 1900.Another distinction will be the 1894 provides a Purdey forend fastener (drive button) andthe 1900 has the bite on Baker kind forend fastener.Gun's with smooth ribs will end up being earlier gunswill usually have the firing flag'sas component of the hammer. Furthermore, if possibly the 1894 or 1900 model provides a concave rib(not really smooth) and /or one mess in the cause safeguard (not really two) and /ór a concavésafety it will nearly always possess the suspended firing pin's. The modifications to thefloating shooting pin had been around 1906.Also on both versions the 1894 and 1900, there is definitely the 1894 patent date on theforend iron.For the design 1900, they did aside with the stage on top of the buttpIate andwent to á cheaper straighter buttpIate.I possess collected Remington model 1894 and 1900 dual for over 40 decades.
